So I wanna run 8 clones in miirym, and I need help cutting 3 from this list. Any help is great, thanks.
The list (dramatic music) altered ego, spark double, stunt double, progenitor mimic, dack’s duplicate, vesuvan shapeshifter, phyrexian metamorph, clever impersonator, sakashima’s student, sakashima’s protégé, irenicus’s vile duplication,

Cut Progenitor Mimic, Vesuvan Shapeshifter
There's 2 now you need 1 more to cut

I'd cut Sakashima's Protege unless you have cascade synergy. Otherwise, it's awkward in that it can only copy something that has already entered (such as the thing it cascades into).

I'd cut Irenicus's Vile Duplication because it is a Sorcery.
With someone like Altered Ego, she ETB as a clone of a Dragon you control, but because she's non-token, Miirym copies her. So, for example, you copy Rapacious Dragon to get some Treasure. Altered Ego ETB and you get 2x treasure, and Miirym copies her to make 2x more Treasure, for a total of 4.
With Irenicus's Vile Duplication, being a sorcery, it ETB as a token already. Therefore, Miirym doesn't copy it.

Thanks for the ideas guys, I forgot about rapacious dragon. Protégé is there because I figure I can Cascade into any mana accel while getting a dragon in play and then there's Astral dragon making more copies of the protoge
Question, if I Astral Dragon and make copies of something with Cascade do the tokens Cascade? And I assume if so I just get a land
